bnx2 fails to compile on parisc because of missing get_dma_ops()

I'm not quite sure whose fault this one is.

However, this code in bnx2.c:

if (!get_dma_ops(&pdev->dev)->sync_single_for_cpu) {
next_rx_buf =
&rxr->rx_buf_ring[
RX_RING_IDX(NEXT_RX_BD(sw_cons))];
prefetch(next_rx_buf->desc);
}

Looks remarkably fragile: what exactly is it trying to do?

The commit that causes the problem:

commit a33fa66bcf365ffe5b79d1ae1d3582cc261ae56e
Author: Michael Chan <mchan@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu May 6 08:58:13 2010 +0000

bnx2: Add prefetches to rx path.

Looks fairly innocuous by the description.

Should parisc have a get_dma_ops()? We don't need one because our dma
ops are per platform not per bus.
